Mound is an uncertain earthwork monument located in the Newry and Mourne district of Northern Ireland. The monument's precise chronological attribution and original function remain undetermined, as is often the case with burial mounds and other raised earthworks in the region where diagnostic artefacts or excavation records are absent. Its classification as uncertain reflects the challenges inherent in dating and interpreting upstanding earthworks without archaeological investigation or historical documentation. The site is recorded within the Northern Ireland Sites and Monuments Record as an example of the landscape features requiring further study to establish its archaeological significance and period of construction.
